Bayesian analysis of Enceladus’ plume data to assess methanogenesis
The NASA Cassini mission revealed the existence of an ocean and hydrothermal activity underneath the Saturnian moon’s icy surface. Earth's hydrothermal systems team with microbial life. How likely are Enceladus’ hydrothermal vents habitable to Earth-like microorganisms?
The unique defect properties in antimony trisulfide (Sb2S3)
In our recent paper (Nature Communications, 2021, 12:3260), we reported the experimental study on defect properties of antimony trisulfide (Sb2S3). Here I highlight the critical issues regarding the sample preparation, unique defect properties and the significance to device performance improvement.
